If you haven’t brought a physical copy of Pantheon Issue 8 NYX you can now read The Epiphany of Cool for free by heading over there lickety-split. And while your there you should totally take the opportunity to browse all the great stories and poetry they’ve published. Go on, you know you want to 😉

I push my tongue hard against the back of my teeth. “Real coolness isn’t achieved by doing dumb shit stuff.” I spread my hands out wide in a ta-dah gesture. “All we’ll get from this night is the empty sham of pseudo popularity.”

Jade tucks her bunny slipper feet under herself, curls up on the armchair with cat-like distain. “You still came though.”

And yeah, whatever.

The Epiphany of Cool is a nihilistic satire of high school clique initiations and torch-light scary stories. It is now available in Pantheon Magazine issue #8: NYX, along with seven other stories and six poems inspired by Nyx, Goddess of the night.
